I will try to amplify the message about the fundraiser in my tiny, tiny little part of the Internet world. Have I mentioned tiny? We’re talking “swimming in Lake Michigan in February naked, and then running out of the water for a picture” tiny. But I’ll try.

2024-09-09 21:59:29 +0000 UTCThe misinformation machine is hard at work here in the US as well! Possible Putin puppets Tim Pool, David Rubin and Benny Johnson caught with their pants down apparently taking Russian money. They are trying to claim, "I'm a victim!" We'll see, that's what the Justice system is set up to do. https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/09/05/tenet-media-russia-rt-tim-pool/ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/crrlv7jdnq8o

Old testament, real wrath of god type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Forty years of democratic rule! Earthquakes. Volcanoes! Human sacrifice. Jews and Muslims working together. Mass hysteria!"

2024-09-08 02:35:07 +0000 UTCNot sure how many non-American listeners you have, but it might be important at some point before the fundraiser to note that only American citizens and green card holders are allowed to donate to American political campaigns and parties, and the prohibition on foreign donations includes indirect donations.
